I have to do some chain stitching on a purse I made for my sister (for those of you who kinda know what I'm talking about, my sister said the purse is just fine) How do you do it? I did one little circle and it looks like $@*! Can someone help me?

So do I do a chain stitch and then stitch it on the purse I'm making? I don't know how to embroider. Is there a term in embroidery called a chain stitch too? Here's the link, if you can figure it out that would be great! I'm confused! www.elann.com/ShowFreePattern.asp?Id=187024
